More than 1,000 enhancements and new features will lay the foundation for enterprise and telco workloads from programmable IaaS for hybrid clouds, developer clouds and production clouds and cloud-native applications like network functions virtualization (NFV), edge computing, artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML).
The latest version of the platform adds a refined long-life support lifecycle, feature consolidation and a new commitment to delivering continuous community innovation as enterprise-ready features via stream releases, the company says.
